My only thought is the motor runs fine with no load on the motor, but with a load there is not enough fuel to handle the load

make sure the fuel rail pressure is in spec

do you think it could be the fuel filters or the vst

When the motor starts to bog down mist some gasoline into the air intake. See if it picks and runs better.

1st thing you need to do is find out if the rail pressure is in spec when the problem shows up
so this morning i went to the lake to check out the boat i haven't done anything but pump the primer a few times started the motor and took off the motor runs fine now could there have air gotten into the line?

if the fuel system leakes before the lift pump on motor, it can suck air in.
pumping the primer bulb would fill the VST so the pump inside of it could pump the rail up.
running the VST pump without fuel in the VST to pump, cannot cool and lube that pump and harm it.
but if the problem shows back up pumping the primer bulb will help tell you where the problem is.
